Ironbridge station, Shropshire

In the days when Ironbridge had a railway, standard class 4 2-6-4T engine 80102 heads an afternoon passenger train from Shrewsbury to Bewdley into Ironbridge station. It is a pity that, when the Severn Valley Railway was restored, the project did not extend far enough to the north to include Ironbridge.
